It's more than a game. It's the Stanley Cup Final.

Game 1 between the New York Rangers and the Los Angeles Kings will air Wednesday, June 4 at 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT).

This year's Stanley Cup Final features a New York Rangers franchise seeking its first championship in 20 years and a Los Angeles Kings team looking to capture its second Stanley Cup in three years. The Eastern Conference Champion Rangers, led by net minder Henrik Lundqvist, booked their ticket to the Final by defeating the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday while the Kings and all-star goalie Jonathan Quick were crowned Western Conference Champions after taking down the defending Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks in overtime of a thrilling Game 7. The Kings have won three consecutive Game 7s in this year's playoffs and are the only team to have played in all 21 possible games thus far.
